Still haven't tried this. Not sure why really. I loved Breaking Bad, but prequels just tend to put me off. And I wasn't really interested enough in Saul as a character to think he could carry his own show. I know that all of that is irrelevant, because Breaking Bad isn't the focus anymore, and there...

Brie made a mistake on Monday; it happens to everyone. It happens more if you're fucking awful at your job, but it still happens to everyone. The referee and the guys in the back are more deserving of blame in my opinion for failing to deal with the situation correctly afterwards. Injuries will alwa...

Nikki is much better than Brie, and was given a lot of credit for improving towards the end of the period where basically all of their main roster women were still pretty bad. She looked good by comparison back then, but she's way down the list now. She's still being pushed over a dozen women much m...

It must suck to be a woman in modern WWE and watch the Bellas come back to be treated as the biggest stars of a women's revolution pay per view. They suck. They epitomise everything that was bad about the old Divas division. They can't wrestle worth a damn; they can't even talk for that matter. They...

She really is awful. Looks like she caught her twice here: once to the jaw which stunned Liv, and she fell into the second kick. I saw the gifs of Brie botched suicide dives from a couple of weeks ago too. I feel bad for thinking about this, but imagine being Daniel Bryan and trying to give your wif...

Congrats Aky! I'm sure you'll make a great Dad. I hope you don't have too many sleepness nights in your future - having twins must be a lot of work at first, but when they're old enough to play on their own it'll be great that they have each other's company.

I heard that fans in the arena were chanting "This is Bullshit" immediately after the show went off the air, which is why they did it so fast. Ridiculous ending really. Also not sure why people are supposed to be excited about Lesnar being back in the title scene already, particularly cons...

I don't watch WWE anymore, but I have heard people talk about some of these segments somewhat positively. Apparently they teased Shawn Michaels coming out of retirement to face Undertaker again, and fans actually chanted for the match? I don't understand these people. Even if they managed to put tog...

I watched it. I thought it was a good show. Weirdly, while there is a segment of WWE fans who have been negative on this show since long before it actually aired just because it was organised by 'the enemy', this was very much a WWE-style show. There were a lot of legend appearances, gimmicks, and c...

It seems strange because he was a better actor inside the confines of pro-wrestling than the Rock was. But the Rock was a special case; he had a lot of movie star charm which is why he ended up breaking Hollywood. He learned to become a better actor afterwards. Austin didn't have that. He was more c...

That's the impression I've always gotten of it alright. It's a glorious car crash of a promotion. Triplemania always goes hilariously off the rails, as if they're just not built for that scale of show. I don't watch a lot of Lucha, but CMLL is supposed to be the superior of the Mexican promotions. B...

Turning Becky heel was idiotic. I watched a quick video of the heel turn and its reaction, and found it quite funny. The company don't have a clue how to book faces. Becky is the more popular performer of the two. She's the more sympathetic of the two, both in general and particularly in this story....

Sounds like Punk being a prick, but hard to know without hearing the whole story. It's sad, because even though Dr Amann's case was bullshit and he lost the lawsuit, he's still financially crippled Cabana and broke up a long friendship. Sure Punk allowed it to happen, and he shouldn't be allowed off...

It's funny how things can just take off like this. There have been so many stories about Orton, that we could all probably name. That he's now under investigation for this one particular story which came from a podcast six years ago that just happened to resurface on Reddit recently is kinda bizarre...

I was going to make a thread about the G1 ... but I doubt anyone else has been watching it.

How are things with you, Tim?

Naito wins the IWGP championship for the second time. It feels like it needs to happen by Dominion next year, if not sooner. He's super popular, he's wrestling the best matches of his career, Los Ingobernables are on fire. It's his time. As great as Omega's matches are, Naito would make a better cha...

I think you're being very kind to some of those performers and angles, John. It is a problem that Nia Jax is a babyface fighting heels that are half her size. That's a stupid booking decision to begin with; Jax should never have been cast in that role. It's a problem they created for themselves for ...

Joe vs AJ should be a great match, but truthfully, I'm a little puzzled how Joe just jumped to the front of the line. As for the Roman vs Brock match, I would have had Lashley win and face Brock and further the whole keeping Roman away from the world title story they were trying to tell. That being...

Women's tag belts would be a disaster. In a few years when their roster is bigger, better, and the brands aren't separated, it'd be a good idea. Right now it would fucking suck. I heard rumours that this announcement was actually about an all women's pay per view instead though. Which would still pr...

Titus O'Neil has also made a statement which is even more damning. He said that Hogan spent his speech making excuses, saying that he didn't know he was being filmed, etc. Titus didn't believe that Hogan showed proper contrition or remorse for his actions. Meltzer also reported that WWE turned the s...
